Problems with lower pages moving from dev to live
Permalink
I'm trying to move a site from my local dev machine to a demo server to show client.
Site works perfectly on local. I've exported the DB, transferred the files and imported on the host server.
For some reason, my homepage will display (with no css), I can log into the dashboard and do everything as expected but when I try to access the other links from the menu on the homepage I get a blank screen. The head tag loads but no body tag?
Is this a database import issue or could it be permissions related?
Any help would be appreciated.http://epa.stephencummins.me/index.php... will get you to the homepage.

Before you exported the database did you turn off and clear the cache? Also, when you uploaded the files to the server, did you omit the cache files? If you did both of those things, please provide the line of code that displays after the CSS comments line in your theme file header.
I cleared the cache but I did upload the directory. I'm AFK for the day so will try this later.
Strange behaviour with this. I clear the cache in C5 then delete the content of the cache folder and a lower page will load, if I laid a URL directly. If I click on a page link, the white screen is back.
Repeat the process, reload the page & it appears. Click a link, white screen.
Any advice or suggestions?
Should I clear cache & re-export DB on my local then upload everything except the cache folder?

If you can I would turn off the cache, clear it, turn off pretty urls (if they are on), then re-export and import the database. See if everything is working, if it is turn those things back on. If it's not report back what happens.
Hi. Tried all that stuff last night.
Uploaded the site files again too without the cache folder and a clean export of the DB but still get the white screen when you visit any of the lower pages.
I might just do a clean install on the server & copy & paste the content in from my local. Its only about 20pages.

Have you checked your PHP Error logs to see if there is an error in there that is occurring consistently?
Sorry for the delay in responding. I rebuilt the site in 90 mins directly on the server so got around the immediate issue.
I tried checking the logs but I have a lot of sites installed on my host server & there was noting out of the ordinary for the sub-domain listed (it only keeps the last 300)
Thanks for your advice. I will definitely follow these steps the next time I'm trying to upload a site to this host.
